The Mastodon transition had a chance until Elon banned it.

  It is still growing steadily and is a fun place, especially for software folks. Good emacs conversations, lot of interesting and more data driven GPT conversations. Good maths community. Ok news tho not quite as good as twitter yet.

  I've been a Twitter addict for over a decade. It brought a lot of value to me, helped me meet great people, and helped me get a couple jobs. Mastodon, even with fewer people, has completely replaced Twitter for me. I don't miss Twitter at all, the people who didn't migrate, from what I can tell based on my general mood while using Mastodon, just made me miserable or angry. Also, there's something quite nice about being able to start fresh on a new platform. You can shape it to the experience you want it to be, without all the inertia of your past usage.
